Lyrics Lukey - Great Big Sea

Lukey

Well old Lukey’s boat is painted green
Ha, me boys!
Lukey’s boat is painted green
The prettiest boat that you’ve ever seen
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
Well oh, Lukey’s boat’s got a fine fore cutty
Ha, me boys!
Lukey’s boat’s got a fine fore cutty
And every seam is chinked with putty
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
Altogether, A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
Well I says «Lukey the blinds are down»
Ha, me boys!
I says «Lukey the blinds are down»
«Me wife is dead and she’s underground»
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
Well I says Lukey «I don’t care»
Ha, me boys!
I says Lukey «I don’t care»
«I'll get me another in the spring of the year»
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
Well old Lukey’s rolling out his grub
Ha, me boys!
Lukey’s rolling out his grub
One split pea in a ten pound tub
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
Well, Lukey’s boat’s got high-topped sails
Ha, me boys!
Lukey’s boat’s got high-topped sails
The sheet was planched with copper nails
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
Lukey’s boat is painted green
Ha, me boys!
Lukey’s boat is painted green
It’s the prettiest boat that you’ve ever seen
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
Altogether, A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
A-ha, me boys a-riddle-i-day!
One more, A-ha, me boys a riddle-i-day!
